5 Fandom Friday; Nerdy Hobbies People Don’t Consider Nerdy

5 Fandom Friday is a weekly post that I occasionally indulge in rather than my Fandom Friday Q&As. If you want to know past or upcoming 5 Fandom Fridays, go check out the original post that is updated monthly by The Nerdy Girlie. This weeks topic is “Nerdy Hobbies People Don’t Consider Nerdy”! I thought this would be difficult, but it really wasn’t. Here we go.

Video games (with my fiance)

A lot of people who are not in the gaming world go “awwww, that’s so adorable that you play with him” … and then there’s the toxic people in the gaming world who instantly think I’m going to be horrible because I’m playing with my fiance. Who knew girls could game? But in reality, most times if we’re playing video games nowadays, I’m the one pushing for it. Sorry. 😉

Netflix and chill

Just kidding, more like, Netflix for twelve hours straight, sleep for a few hours, then more Netflix. That’s right. Binge watching Netflix. I felt really really bad when I had an icebreaker with my coworkers mooooonths ago and one of the questions was “Who has the longest binge watch”… Well, let’s say my nerdy binge watching Doctor Who, Supernatural, Lord of the Rings trilogy, and many many other things beat out everyone’s few hours … Ooops.

Game Night

Game night has become really popular. For me, though, game night usually meant stay up all night playing D&D (who wants to see my dice collection? I love dice). Sometimes it was a virtual game night and we played League… but most lightly D&D or Cards Against Humanity. Now? It’s usually Monopoly… World of Warcraft Edition.

Photography

I’m a photographer. I love my hobby/business. I enjoy doing it very much so. I mainly do cosplay photography though. (My cosplay photography page is Epicfy Me Photography on Facebook.
